Les Argiles Vouvray Chenin Blanc


Love the acid, the pear and stone fruit tandem. Not as rich as some of chidaine's wines. I love Chenin and this is a great example.

Dried apricots, honeysuckle, bees wax and flint on the nose. Higher phenolics on the palate with the apricots and flint lingering in the background. Good, vibrant acid with a touch of talc powder on the finish. Tasty and would love to revisit in another 5 years.

Grilled lemon, honey, broad rich texture. This had a very funky nose on opening that blew off over time.

Floral and elegant Chenin from Vouvray that was a perfect match with Sushi.
